Arsenal seriously chasing the Premier League title this season and are looking to strengthen their squad by all means possible, and as such have made an ambitious approach for Leicester City flyer RiyadMahrez with a view to sign him in January.

RiyadMaharez has been one of the standout performers in the Premier league this season, and has combined very well with the impressive Jamie Vardy to give Leicester a fairy tale first half of the season, with Leicester lying in second place on goal difference behind Arsenal.

RiyadMahrez has been linked to Manchester United in recent weeks, and is believed to be happy to stay at Leicester City until the end of the season, but Arsenal have now entered the race and are looking to sign him this January.

Arsenal are in need of reinforcement, with injuries and lack of depth costing them some vital points in the first half of the season, and they have decided to sign RiyadMahrez who has scored 14 goals from the wing this season, and is eligible for Champions league.
